Many young women who suffer from PCOS remain undiagnosed despite experiencing its symptoms. When left undiagnosed or untreated, some health complications may include:
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Infertility:</strong> Women with PCOS often experience irregular periods and problems with ovulation, which affects fertility.</li>
 	<li><strong>Increased Risk of Diabetes and High Blood Pressure:</strong> Hormonal imbalances caused by PCOS can increase the risk of health issues like diabetes and high blood pressure. Women who are overweight will be at a higher risk.</li>
 	<li><strong>Increased Risk of Endometrial Cancer:</strong> If a woman frequently goes beyond 3 months without periods, the lining of the uterus can thicken.</li>
 	<li><strong>Pregnancy Complications:</strong> PCOS brings an increased risk of complications such as miscarriage, gestational diabetes, premature birth or requiring a caesarean delivery.</li>
